Dayilan Islands, Dayilan City.

Although Dayiluan City is slightly inferior to the three major human forces, the Red Lotus Empire, the Ancient Moon Dynasty, and the Seven Star Alliance in terms of comprehensive strength, if only in terms of cities, Dayiluan City is the undisputed number one city in the Broken Sea.

It is said that a high-level being used great power to move more than a dozen oases and connected them with the core super oasis to form the magnificent city we have today.

The city of Dayi is so huge that an old merchant could not finish describing it even if he talked for ten days and ten nights.

The entire city is divided into 50 districts. Districts 1 to 10 are the Royal City District, Districts 11 to 20 are the Upper City District, Districts 21 to 30 are the Lower City District, and the rest are the Outer City District.

In District 11 of Dayiluan City, there is a large mission base affiliated to the Hidden Killing Pavilion.

The specifications of this mission base are very high, and it governs many surrounding bases. Whether it is the assassins of the Hidden Killing Pavilion, external assassins taking on missions, or orders from wealthy nobles, many of them pass through here.

The assassination missions here are also extremely abundant. The powerful killers such as silver and gold medals in the Hidden Killing Pavilion often undertake missions in such large strongholds.

Just today,

"What's going on? All missions have been suspended?"

...

...

“So is issuing a mission.”

"Hehehe, it has been suspended since early this morning. Didn't you notice that the entire base is a bit chaotic?"

The above-ground part of this large base is just a small building, but the underground space is extremely large. There are hundreds of staff members, or servants, in this base alone.

All the employees here have signed indentures, and it is not just the case with the Hidden Killing Pavilion. Most organizations, oases, and nobles have a large number of servants who have signed indentures and are restrained by various means.

The Broken Sea is more powerful than other realms, but its hierarchy is also more solid.

The Master is the Master, and the Servant is the Servant.

The staff of this base, for example, were responsible for the task handover and protection of the base, and occasionally played the role of a killer. Most of these people were branded with souls, but when the top leaders of the base left, they were ordered to remove the brand contracts.

The imprint of the contract that had imprisoned them for years and even decades was shattered on this day.

However, most people's faces were not filled with excitement, but confusion, a state of bewilderment. They followed the orders left by the top management and their previous habits, and stayed in the base absent-mindedly. However, some rumors from outside made these low-ranking employees even more worried.

"What on earth happened? Are you still doing business at Hidden Killing Pavilion?"

A nobleman, who was wrapped in a black robe with a hood but still had some luxurious accessories visible from his collar, kept yelling at the girl at the front desk who lowered her head, pursed her lips and dared not say a word.

Until a weathered man with two sharp swords on his waist and a black eye patch on his face stopped him.

"No matter how you ask, these people can't tell you. They may be even more confused than you are."

The one-eyed man blew out a smoke ring and continued, "But I did hear some news from a friend."

The one-eyed man did not make any disguise. His features of wearing an eye patch and carrying two swords on his waist were very prominent, as well as his eye-catching fiery red short hair. Soon, someone in the underground hall recognized the true identity of this strong man.

The one-eyed sword king, the sixth awakening with the title active in the Great Miluan Islands!

The recognized title with the word "King" in it, even people who don't know him can tell that this person is the best among the six senses of the title, and is one of the very few strongest people below the myth.

It is not surprising that such a person appears at the Hidden Killing Pavilion mission base.

Hidden Killing Pavilion is the No. 1 assassin in the entire Broken Sea region. For powerful people with titles like One-Eyed Sword King, they don't need to issue assassination bounties, but they occasionally accept missions, especially when a powerful person has a bounty from several parties and the assassination price keeps rising. When the chips accumulate to a certain height, the strongest person under the myth will also be tempted.

The One-Eyed Sword King is the strongest of this kind.

Not only that, although he was born a solo player, he was a generous person with friends all over the world, including many big figures with the title of Six Senses or super powers. The face of this big man was useful in many big oases and super oases.

Similarly, this big boss is also very well-informed, and his reliability is many times stronger than those rumors that become more and more exaggerated as they spread.

Seeing that this important person was about to reveal something, many people came following his reputation, with curiosity and anticipation.

The One-Eyed Sword King did not disappoint everyone's expectations. He paused and continued,

"According to some information I heard, Hidden Killing Pavilion has sold most of its businesses, and this base is probably one of them."

"Sell it? That's impossible. How could a super power like the Hidden Killing Pavilion do such a thing as cutting off one of its own arms?"

"Perhaps, it was out of necessity?"

"Who can force such a huge monster like the Hidden Killing Pavilion to do anything?"

"Not necessarily. The Hidden Killing Pavilion is indeed powerful, but compared to the Red Lotus Empire, the Great Mi Chaos City, etc., it is not worth mentioning."

"Maybe it's a bet between mythical beings. Think about it, a mythical being uses its own forces as chess pieces, and if it loses, it will cut off a part of it. Is this possible?"

Some strong people made some guesses.

After all, myths are too far away from them. Even the One-eyed Sword King, who is known as the strongest of the six senses under myths, can only look at the backs of myths from afar and rarely has the opportunity to see such an existence.

The One-Eyed Sword King shook his head.

He was also guessing and was very curious, so he stayed in this underground base and did not leave.

As time went by, the staff in the base became more panicked, as if there was an undercurrent brewing. At the same time, the curious people also brought new news.

"Latest news, latest news!"

"I went to more than a dozen mission bases in Dayiluan City. Most of them were the same as here. The managers left with cold faces and said something, but there were still two that maintained normal operation."

"Yes, they are the bases on White Frost Leaf Street and Minglun Fort in District 6. Notices have already been issued at those two bases."

"Due to some special reasons, starting today, many bases of the Hidden Killing Pavilion are sold to others. The rest of the bases are operating normally. The issuance of all assassination orders and the acceptance of assassination bounties are no different from before."

Big changes in Hidden Killing Pavilion!

But this special reason, which has not been described in detail, has aroused the curiosity of many people.

There were many powerful people present, and some of them had good relationships with the top leaders of the Hidden Killing Pavilion.

"The top brass don't seem to know the specific reasons, but they still have all the top assassins. I think we can still trust the reputation of Hidden Killing Pavilion."

"I have also found out some information. It is said that this abandoned base was sold to a chamber of commerce called Burning Fire. Also sold were many low- and mid-level assassins."

This information was also obtained from the management of Hidden Killing Pavilion.

But, the Burning Chamber of Commerce? What kind of chamber of commerce is this? I have never heard of it.

Many people looked at each other and shook their heads. Some looked at the knowledgeable One-Eyed Sword King, but the red-haired Sword King struggled to recall the memory for a while and still shook his head.

"At least I have never heard of any superpower called Burning Fire in the Broken Sea."

"It can't be some big oasis force, right? It's not that possible."

"But I have never heard of the Burning Chamber of Commerce. None of the top 100 chambers of commerce in the Broken Sea look like it. Moreover, the management personnel of each base have been evacuated for three days, and I haven't seen anyone from the Burning Chamber of Commerce come to take over. It can be seen that the power of the Burning Chamber of Commerce is quite limited."

The powerful men like One-Eyed Sword King who occasionally act as assassins are eager for an assassin organization that is as big as the Hidden Killing Pavilion to emerge. In this way, the two assassin platforms will compete with each other, and the commission on the bounty will inevitably decrease, which is beneficial to them.

But now it seems that the Burning Chamber of Commerce is completely useless.

It is said that they have taken over most of the mission bases of the Hidden Killing Pavilion and most of the low- and middle-level assassins, but no direct descendants of the Chamber of Commerce have arrived yet. How can such a small Chamber of Commerce make the assassin organization bigger and stronger?

Apart from other things, the management staff of the Hidden Killing Pavilion had left, and the people from the Burning Fire Chamber of Commerce had not arrived yet, so this mission base had become increasingly chaotic.

The One-Eyed Sword King saw that someone inside the stronghold was hurriedly leaving with a large bag on his back. He knew without thinking that it contained some strange crystal treasures. He also saw several people in black robes looking at each other and quietly followed.

Such scenes were found in multiple locations within the large stronghold.

If people were not afraid of the might of the Hidden Killing Pavilion and the various powerful people within the stronghold whose details were not known, I am afraid that a fight would break out in this underground hall. However, the storm is already brewing quietly.

“I don’t know what method the Burning Fire Merchants used to force the Hidden Killing Pavilion to cut its flesh, but now it seems that the half of the Hidden Killing Pavilion that was sold is useless.”

"Indeed, let alone the signature gold medal killers, all of whom are still in the Hidden Killing Pavilion, even the Silver, Bronze, and Iron medal killers may not be left in the Burning Chamber of Commerce."

"Without sufficient size, even if there is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it is impossible to occupy and digest a superpower. It is difficult to digest a large power."

"Yes, otherwise why do some myths exist, and they are like commanders without troops."

"Hehehe, speaking of this, I remembered a secret. There was a mythical being who used poison. He once used his great power to forcibly occupy a large oasis. However, the direct descendants arranged by that mythical being soon died or were disabled. They were unable to rule at all. In the end, the mythical being gave up on his own."

The power belongs to oneself, but the size comes from everyone.

…

"You want to swallow up my Hidden Killing Pavilion? Haha, you are just dreaming!"

In the luxuriously decorated attic, light fell on the carpet. At the end, the deputy leader of the Hidden Killing Pavilion, wearing a green cloak, was sitting on a large chair, checking the news sent back from various places, and sneered.

Most of the Hidden Killing Pavilion was given up. This was an order from the ancestor and there was nothing we could do about it.

But if the Fire Merchants want to swallow it up, it won’t be that easy, or rather, they can’t swallow much!

How many people are there in the entire Burning Chamber of Commerce? Perhaps there are two noble Mythical Monarchs, but to occupy a powerful force, Mythical Monarchs alone are far from enough!

Myths are just pillars. A sufficient number of inhuman-level masters and second and third awakening elites are the cornerstones of governing a force. Not to mention, their Hidden Killing Pavilion is a super power with strongholds all over the Broken Sea. They need direct descendants to rule the world. Does the Burning Fire Merchant have it?

Of course not.

The number of patrol personnel in the Burning Chamber of Commerce's own oasis is quite limited, so how much manpower can they spare to go to the Broken Sea?

"That's called having too big an appetite, which will only choke you."

“Look, even if the assassins and servants are assigned to the Burning Chamber of Commerce, they are no longer bound by the slave secret law. Whether they leave or stay is none of our business.”

Otherwise, why did he immediately order the forced recall of family members from those strongholds instead of transferring them steadily?

He just wants to be fast.

The faster, the more chaotic.

Anyway, the ones that are in chaos are those strongholds that have been ceded away.

He seemed to see the Burning Chamber of Commerce trying to clean up the mess. As long as the Hidden Killing Pavilion gave up a little profit, those assassins who had released their secret skills would still come back like dogs.

Presumably, the ancestor thought so too.

Jiejiejiejiejie——

…

On the night of the fourth day, in the large stronghold in the 11th district of Daimiryuu Castle.

Boom—boom—

Bursts of explosions came from underground.

Taking advantage of the night, several unidentified awakened people wearing black robes have rushed into the large stronghold that is now almost undefended. Their movements are like the flames of igniting firewood. In an instant, the flames ignited, the storm surged, and the awakened strongmen hiding in the dark with different thoughts took action one after another.

Thunder, flames, blood, and sickles!

Perhaps they were worried about making a big fuss and attracting patrols from Dayiluan City, so the strong men who took action restrained their destructive power, but the murderous intent hidden in them was no less.

In just a few breaths, two men in black robes fell in a pool of blood.

And more raiders rushed deeper into the stronghold.

This is the large base of the Hidden Killing Pavilion, one of the highest level bases. A lot of information and treasures are stored here.

After a few days of observation, it was clear that the Hidden Killing Pavilion had abandoned this place long ago, and the people from the Burning Fire Chamber of Commerce who were to take over had not yet arrived.

This gradually made many people think about it.

I couldn't hold it back any longer.

As long as the treasure house of this stronghold is pried open, what you get will be enough to run a large oasis family. Even the Six Awakening Throne would be jealous.

As for the Burning Chamber of Commerce? Not to mention that the people who were going to take over hadn't arrived yet, even if they did, it wouldn't matter. It was just a small, unknown force, and no one cared about it.

They care more about the competitors around them.

When the storm arose, there were sixty or seventy looters who hid their faces and attacked, but they belonged to more than a dozen parties.

They were wary of each other, they couldn't hold back, they started fighting.

Looking at these people, the Red-haired Sword King had a look of disgust, but he did not take any action.

He shook his cloak, blew out a smoke ring, turned and walked towards the exit.

'There's no need to continue watching this farce.'

He suddenly stopped again.

A face suddenly became solemn.

Not far away, several figures, six people, walked down the stairs leading to the ground.

The leader was a woman wearing a mask on her head. Her facial features were very ordinary, except for her eyes, which were dim and dark, like the passage to the underworld.

Next to the woman, another tall woman with striking cat ears spoke.

"The Burning Chamber of Commerce will take over this base from now on. All unrelated persons must leave immediately."

The real master is here!

The black-robed man who was about to rob paused for a moment as if he was stuck, but the next moment, he turned his firepower tacitly and targeted the six strong killers from the Burning Chamber of Commerce.

There was also a powerful killer who rushed out from the darkness on the side, with a cold blade shining with a faint cold light.

Time seemed to have stopped.

The red-haired sword king only saw the ordinary-looking woman's eyes closing and opening again.

When the pair of fascinating eyes opened, the cold light turned into an invisible storm, sweeping across the entire underground base. Everyone was strangled by the throat, and the red-haired sword king was also shocked, but soon found that the invisible storm was just like a breeze, blowing through his hair.

But he clearly saw that the four black-robed men a hundred meters in front of him and the three black-robed men dozens of meters behind his left and right all fell to the ground.

At the same time, dozens of robbers who had drawn their weapons also fell to the ground.

The rest of them were just gasping for breath in shock, without losing a hair.

What an amazing control!

The person who came was An Jianyou, who had changed his appearance and figure using the 'disguise' skill.

The appearance is ordinary, but the peaks are majestic.

I'm not used to walking with this body.

An Jianyou muttered in his heart, and after clearing the entire place with a mental attack, he spoke:

"The original Hidden Killing Pavilion base has been renamed the Mission Guild office from today onwards. A review mechanism has been added to the original assassination missions, and only rewards that have passed the review will be issued. In addition, the Mission Guild has added a number of new businesses, including but not limited to item transportation missions, escort missions, extermination missions, errand running missions, search missions, etc."

"The purpose of our guild is to accomplish whatever we ask for."

The faint voice echoed throughout the entire underground stronghold, and like a bird with wings, it flew to all parts of Dayiluan City and to the entire Broken Sea.
